Eight 1/2 Federico Fellini - Charles Affron

8 1/2 is among the greatest films of one of the masters of Italian
cinema, Federico Fellini. This is the first English translation of the
dialogue and the first complete continuity script of 8 1/2. This richly
comic work, long recognized as the most important expression of the
director's views about himself and his art, communicates to its viewers
an understanding of the processes of filmmaking itself. 8 1/2 is the
story of a director's efforts to make a film; it depicts the conditions
of creativity, the struggle waged between the individual and the world, a
struggle that finally makes some sense out of life and art.
